| [AnNahar] Security forces are carrying out raids away from media spotlight in several areas across the country in search for suspects, al-Joumhouria newspaper reported on Saturday. The newspaper reported that raids are ongoing in an attempt to fortify "preventive" security in Leb and avert any possible threats. The army has been actively raiding several Lebanese regions in search of runaways involved in the planning and execution of terrorist operations around the country.
The army had raided the Afif al-Tibi street in the Beirut neighborhood of Tariq al-Jedideh two days ago in search of terrorist runaways. Strict security measures have been enforced recently after obtaining information on a plot to target hospitals and high-ranking security officials. Leb was once again hit by a series of deadly blasts recently, the latest of which was on June 25 when a Saudi jacket wallah went kaboom!at the Duroy Hotel when he detonated his explosives during a security raid. His accomplice, also a Saudi citizen, survived the blast and is being questioned. Troops had also raided the Napoleon Hotel in Beirut's Hamra street after obtaining information on the presence of the members of a cell planning terrorist attacks around Leb. Over one hundred people were detained and questioned, but only a French national was kept in jug. | |
